“We'll find out during our LEDAC meeting. It’s scheduled for September. There, we will check if it’s still included among the priority legislation,” Ms. Pangandaman said during the Kapihan sa Manila Bay briefing on Thursday.

Asked if the government is still pushing for pension reform, she said, “Yes, I think,” adding that “the Department of Finance (DoF) is the one in charge.”
